Roger that man, I have thought the same about the game since launch. I didn’t pre-order based on my experiences with the beta but I did end up buying it on launch day to play with friends who were making the move from BF3. The constant client crashing and server crashing during the first two weeks was unacceptable. It seems they have worked out some of the kinks but it’s still broken. What so upsetting is the return of the craptacular netcode. This is something I doubt will get a “fix.” It was bad in BF3 but it’s worse in BF4.
When people have asked if they should buy it I have told them to wait. Wait till the game gets fixed or drops in price. In it’s current state it’s not worth the money they are asking. Premium? No way. I’m not going to drop more money on a game that doesn’t work nor will I recommend it to anyone else. There are too many good games out there that I either have bought through Steam and haven’t played or haven’t purchased yet. I’d rather give my money to developers/publishers that take the time and dedicate the resources to release a quality product that works(where was the quality assurance on BF4??)
He hasn’t bought a game that hasn’t been broken on launch until now..?
Ya this all sucks but I’m probably gonna end up buying battlefield 5 when it comes out to be completely honest lol I always say to myself that I won’t buy the next CoD as well but always end up buying it. Just one of those things
STFU you fucking cry babies- for fucks sake you all sound like nearly every goddamn game doesn’t have some issues at launch, play much? Sure it hurts when it’s not working, but when it is and for many of us that most all of the time it is pretty fucking fun. And also I swear when I see one of these cry posts/vids it seems like you think you might compel others to quit- just quit already…quitter…
Problems here too. And what sucks the most is that BF4 is the only game I have for my x1.

I always get passed the software problems but I can’t get passed the client side hit detection. It would have been an awesome game (3 and 4) if they used anything but that. It makes the game completely unplayable for me
I don’t remember the volume of issues for the last few BF launches as this one seems to have.
I already knew that there will be alot of bugs in bf4 when I bought the game. EA Games does not give a fuck on customer satisfaction. (most of the players purchased everything in the beginning anyways - PREMIUM )
I already learend to deal with it and that’s why they will keep taking this road… They learned that they can just do it.
So if you are terrified by the number of bugs in Betafield 4 you should propably not buy Bugglefield 5.
I feel your pain. But BF3 had a shitty net code too, why the fuck would you think they would suddenly start caring? If you didn’t learn your lesson from BF3, you deserve to get screwed buying another garbage title
Tried to have a BF4 lan party this weekend. There were four of us and we gave up after 4 hours of play, when all four of us had only been in the game together for about half a round total.
Between server crashes and individual crashes, we were able to play with everyone together for about 10 minutes in the entire 4 hour period.
Usually DICE games are a big buggy on launch, we’ve come to expect that, but this game is unplayable if you aren’t by yourself.
If BF5 came out tomorrow you would buy it in a heartbeat and you know it.
Every Battlefield game has had poor netcode.
A game shouldnt be broken at launch. I came here wondering if i should get battlefield 4 but it looks not
ok- that’s fine- playing like a charm here- and al others I know too. Enjoy your next game.
